SZIget
Festival
2017
Once a year, at the Sziget Festival, the “Island of Freedom” on the river Danube becomes a multicultural melting pot for music, art and theatre. At this festival, everything is just a little bit bigger, going that little bit further and higher. In figures: one week, more than 50 stages, about 200 items on the programme, over 1000 artists and getting on for 500,000 visitors.
During the week from 9 to 16 August 2017, the festival celebrates its 25-year anniversary. A perfect opportunity for us to take you to the island and live stream all week long for arte concert.
The bands range from international stars and the biggest names in the global pop and rock scene, through to smaller bands and musicians from the metal, folk, jazz, blues, alternative and world music genres. Sziget even caters for the fans of classical music. In its anniversary year, the highlights include Pink, Jamie Cullum, Wiz Khalifa, Kasabian, George Ezra, Billy Talent, Tom Odell, Bad Religion, Paul van Dyk, Fritz Kalkbrenner and many others.
